Load and trailer

Outside the built-up area you are driving on an expressway with your car and a trailer with a permitted maximum mass of 1,400 kg. A sign beside the road shows 100 km/h. What is the highest speed you may drive here?

90 km/h, the maximum with a trailer
100 km/h, what the sign beside the road shows
80 km/h, because the expressway is outside the built-up area

Explanation

False — You follow the sign as if you had no trailer. With a trailer a separate maximum applies: 90 km/h on expressways and motorways up to 3,500 kg, even when the sign allows more. Book p.229.
